Maximum group sizes for simultaneous testing in high potential risk scenarios (2013)
Journal Article
Coolen, F. (2013). Maximum group sizes for simultaneous testing in high potential risk scenarios. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part O: Journal of Risk and Reliability, 227(6), 569-575. https://doi.org/10.1177/1748006x13489483

When tests are performed in scenarios such as reliability demonstration, two extreme possibilities are to perform all required tests simultaneously or to test all units sequentially. From the perspective of time for testing, the former is typically p... Read More about Maximum group sizes for simultaneous testing in high potential risk scenarios.

Nonparametric predictive inference for system failure time based on bounds for the signature (2013)
Journal Article
Al-Nefaiee, A., & Coolen, F. (2013). Nonparametric predictive inference for system failure time based on bounds for the signature. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part O: Journal of Risk and Reliability, 227(5), 513-522. https://doi.org/10.1177/1748006x13485188

System signatures provide a powerful framework for reliability assessment for systems consisting of exchangeable components. The use of signatures in nonparametric predictive inference has been presented and leads to lower and upper survival function...
